FIRA'S POV
The Alpha King of Fire did not answer my question, he walked away from me instead. He left me hanging, questioning what happened to me and him after the death of my mother.
Why do I have this symbol of Fire in my wrist? I badly need an answer.
I was staring at my wrist for so long. I was the weak Omega who had no longer time in this world because if I made a mistake, they were no mercy. They can kill me or worse, it includes my family. If they knew that I had this kind of symbol, the Betas would suffer me to death. Everyone in this kingdom would treat me like an animal until this symbol gradually erases.
I held tight my skirt, hiding the symbol. I immediately walked towards the hallway and followed King Fire. I was not allowed to call him by his name because it was not yet a full moon. Their real names were hidden under the elemental power they had.
"Where have you been!" Saza grabbed my arms in full force. Saza is the Leader of the Omega who has been assigned to the Alpha King of Fire.
My body was trembling as she looked at me with her burning eyes. This was my end if she punishes me. I was trying to hide the symbol on my wrist because she might see that. My chest was pounding so recklessly when she gritted her teeth. The thing was, if you were assigned in the royal's kingdom area, you are prone to punishment because you are prohibited to make any single mistake. I was exposed to the rules that must abide, if I did not, I might be killed. My body was not used to handling any pain. All my life, I was just cleaning the clothes, serving them. Not encountered any violence, except when the three rainbow sisters bullied me.
"20 slashes!"
My heart skipped to beat as she said those words. Immediately, my eyes watered. "Please, no. I can't handle the slashes. My body is no—"
"30 slashes!" Her face had no emotion, she was like a hidden monster inside the kind feature of a lady. She looked at his side, nodding at the guard. "Simon, give her 30 slashes."
Simon walked towards me and recklessly grabbed my shoulder. I shut my mouth from pleading because the more I plead, the more I get hurt. Simon dragged me to the hallway, he was abusive because my arms, for sure, had a blood clot.
"I saw her!"
The guard stopped from walking. We both looked back at Cass. She was nervous, I Knew, but she managed to bow to Saza and spoke. "I saw her with the Alpha King of Fire, he talked to her and that was why she was gone for a second."
Saza stared at her face, observing if she was telling the truth. "Are you sure?"
"Yes. I swear to the Alphas." Cass was bowing his head, she did not look at Saza.
"Let her go." She commanded, walked towards me and straightly looked at eyes. "Be good. I will watch you."
I bowed to her, my body was still shaking from the tension. "Thank you."
When she walked away, I ran to Cass and hugged her. We both sighed as a relief. If she did not come, 30 slashes would rip my body. I could not take that pain.
"Thank you so much, Cass." I was looking at her with a smile.
"You can tell her that King Fire asked you to come." Cass held a tray from the table. She looked at me with pity in her eyes. "Try to avoid the punishment. Last time, I got fifty slashes, I had a fever so high. I thought that was the end of my life."
"I didn't tell her about King Fire because of the fear that consumed me." I grabbed a tray, still trying to keep the symbol out of anyone's sight. "What happened? Why did you get fifty slashes?"
She chuckled. I found her cute by her full smile, a natural beauty was showing on her round small face. "I sneak into the room of King Fire." She moved closer to my ear and whispered. "I have a crush on him. I just wanted to take a look at his things and smell his bed. Crazily, Saza caught me."
I did not know, but a smile formed on my lips. "You are insane." Imagine, what she did was breathtaking. I could not do that.
"That's fine. I am okay now." We walked towards the wealthy carpet, going to the kitchen. "If you want to taste one of the Alpha, go to the Alpha King of Wind. He will accommodate you with open arms."
Alpha King of Wind? What was his name? He told me that. I did not remember their names. Maybe when I saw him again.
"Who is the Alpha King of Wind?" Out of curiosity, I asked her. We positioned ourselves on the sink to start washing the dishes.
"King Wind, the most approachable man, he will ask you to come to his room if you are interested. Easy to please. The one always had a smile and he is so handsome!" Cass was blushing as she told stories.
I pulled all the information together and tried to remember the King Wind. Ah! I knew him! Zephyrus. That was his name. He said to me last time that he was free that night and if I was willing, go to the terrace. Yeah, I remembered his name, it was just my head was preoccupied from knowing who my mates are plus the shaking scene of almost having thirty slashes.
"Actually, they are all approachable, but at times unpredictable, especially the King Fire. Don't come near him, if he doesn't call you, punishment is always his words."
That was why when I wanted to say thank you, he said I was not allowed to come near him.
"Fira?" Saza was on the door, staring at me.
"Yes, Madame?" I wiped my wet hands on my skirt and came near her.
"Bath yourself. King Wind is looking for you. Don't make him wait any longer. You will be punished." After her words, she turned his back to me.
"Oh, my gosh! He saw you and your beauty. Okay, fix yourself, it's your turn!" Cass was excited as she organized my hair.
"What does it mean?" I stared at her with all my confusion and it trembled the hell out of me.
"He likes you. It means he wants to take you—"
"No! Can I say no? I mean I am not ready and—" I looked down, peeking at my wrist. I was owned by someone, owned by the Alpha King of Fire. I was an imprinted werewolf, even though I did not yet meet my wolf form.
I am King Pyro's property.
My body was shaking as I walked in the huge porcelain golden hallway of the Elemental Kingdom. Every step was drumming my chest, it was loud and reckless. I felt like my heart was going out of my body. When they were bathing me, I was hiding my wrist. I put bandages on it and said that I had a wound. If they saw the symbol I was in big trouble, my family would suffer to death. I was biting my lips, my tears were condensing in my eyes as the guards opened the huge tribal door of King Wind's door. It was blue in color, there was also a symbol of wind. When I got inside the room, I stared at the man facing the table, sitting while looking at the scroll."Good evening, King Wind." I bowed my head in respect for him. I was seeing the ground and never looked up when he never told me. The fear was crawling all over my body. What if he takes my body tonight? I can't allow him because I don't want that to happen. Will he sentence me to death?"Good evening." His voice was excited. When I l
FIRA'S POVHere we were again, my chest was drumming so reckless and loud. I was trembling as we walked to the room of the Alpha King of Fire. This day was beautiful for me by stomping into the dine in area of the royals, but knowing who my mate was, the knowledge of almost getting a slash or calling by the King Wind, it made my heart rumble. It felt like I was always in danger."Wait for the King Fire to come." The guard walked away from the door. I wanted to grab his arms and said, 'Please, don't leave me with the scary king.' But I had no strength to do that. King Fire was the coldest and scariest among them. I admitted that every time he looked at me, I felt the weakening of my body due to trembling.What does he need from me? Why did he order the guard to bring me here?Ugh! I could pee in my skirt by just waiting for him. I stomped on the ground and my hands were in the middle of my thighs. The fear was crawling all over my body.When I looked at my back, I almost fell my jaw o
FIRA'S POV"I'm cold. Can you warm me?"My eyes widened. I stared at his perfectly formed face. He blinked three times before he fell on my shoulder. "Crap!" I had no idea what to do. If I touched him without permission, I would be punished.My heart was drumming loud. I could not think carefully. He made me shake like an earthquake. He was Alpha King of Fire and according to Cass, his punishment always came out from his mouth. What to do? The tears condensed on the corner of my eyes. I was prevented from touching myself. I peek on his face to know what he was doing. His eyes were closed and he had a deep breathing. My forehead wrinkled like a wave in the ocean. Crap. What am I saying? In this kind of situation, really? I gulped my saliva and peeped again on him. He was peacefully sleeping. Suddenly, I felt that the air coming from his nose was hot. "King Fire?""Pyro." He said with a command. "That's my name when we were alone like this."I thought he was sleeping. I was wrong.
FIRA'S POVI was smiling like a crazy person when the door in his room closed. If I was just alone. I jumped so high. He said thank you to me! I had no idea why I had this feeling of happiness inside my chest. No matter what it was, I did not mind. At least I was happy with the simple gesture of King Fire. I did not believe that his heart would not soften. I remembered how he saved me even though he did not know me. If he did not come, I might die like my mother. His heart was pure and genuine. I was looking forward to that. I would do anything to help him and even sacrifice my own life. That was how I committed myself to him. By giving back his kindness. "Fira!" Zephyris circled his arms on my shoulder. I had an awkwards feeling about that. "Imagine. Puro does not want another person in his room, he doesn't want another person to be close to him, but you break the boundary! You are a lucky woman." A fake smile formed on my lips. What is he saying? I did not do anything. I just to
PYRO'S POVAfter Fira nursed me, I felt good. I was sick for two days and I did not want them to know that. I hated people, their hands were repulsing my body, except the hands of my mother. I just did not want people near me. I looked around. The air touched my body. I was sitting on my favorite tree. I could see the peaceful view of nature, but it was ruined when someone shook the tree. The leaves fell and other branches cracked. When I looked down, it was Hali. "Hi, Pyro the snobber."I did not make an effort to open my mouth. I just heaved a sigh and ignored him. He was disturbing my silence. "Get down! What happened to you and Fira? Did you already give your virginity to that girl?" Hali quake the tree so hard, that was why I held the strong branch beside me. He was annoying me. "Yeah? Or else I will take other omega to go with your be—""They are human. Not an animal. Treat them right." Those were the longest words I had said for a past hours. "You are not going to take adv
PYRO'S POVI peeked at Fira, I saw her passing the hallway. My back was leaning on the wall and my body was a bit twisted enough to view her. When she was finally out of my sight, I was about to move forward when…"Boo!" My expression was shocked, but I managed to expose the calm emotion. It was Zephyrus playing a fool again. He laughed out loud while holding his belly, the mouth was opened and I could see his full teeth. "Who are you hiding for?" He peeped into the hallway and looked around. "There's nothing except for the busy Omegas who was dragging the tray, going to the kitchen of the dining royal…"While he was peeking on the side of the wall and talking about so many nonsense things, I left him. I left him like he was a crazy person speaking to himself. Zephyrus always had plenty of things to say and I hated his noise. I walked to the shortcut tunnel of the kingdom and then went directly to my room. Much better if I was here. No irritating sounds. Only silence that was sooth
PYRO'S POV"Can I move out?" I stood up and stared at my father who was now smiling, looking at my brothers as if that was the beautiful view for him. His eyes met me. "Are you done?" "Yes, father." I forced myself to speak in a low tone. "Me, too. Can I go? I have readings, father." Raiden stood up and looked at our father, too. "Okay." King Oswald grabbed our papers. A smile formed on his lips when he checked our answers by just reading it. "Good job." He tapped my shoulder, next was Raiden. "Thank you, Father." Raiden gave him a small smile before turning his back. King Oswald looked at me with the question in his eyes. 'How about you? What will you say?'I blew a harsh sighed before I forced my mouth to open and say a word. "Thank you, Father."Before I walked, I gazed at them. Hali was frustrated on how to answer the strategies. Colden was calm, but he was thinking about the strategies, too. Zephyrus was holding the pen tightly. His paper had no spot at all. Clean. Oh, poo
FIRA'S POV"This is chemistry. I have no idea why the kings are needed to study the formula, but I will teach you the criss cross rule. It is as easy as you expect." I was writing the symbol of elements, the Ba for Barium and C for Carbon. I was teaching Pyro for an hour and I was not getting tired. Sometimes, I caught him looking at my face, but I ignored him. He was just listening. Honestly, my voice was giving out. He noticed it, that was why he gave me water. "You can go.""We are not yet done?""You will be back tomorrow." He stood up and started to fix his papers and pens. "I will organize it, King Fire." I grabbed the papers and pens from his hands and I started to decorate them in order. "My mom loves making things in order." A smile formed on my lips. "My mom, too." I would not expect that he would answer me. I was now comfortable with him, but there were times that I was still trembling in fear. I was thinking if he would not want me to talk so long. I just could not pu
